A goal by Antoine Griezmann, in the second half, won the game for our team in the inauguration of the Wanda Metropolitano.

Atlético de Madrid beat Málaga by 1-0 with a goal by Griezmann in the inauguration of the Wanda Metropolitano. Before kick-off, the inauguration events of the Wanda Metropolitano took place. The events began with an exhibition of the Eagle Squad in the sky of Madrid. Later, we honoured all our stadiums ((Retiro, O`Donnell, Metropolitano, Vicente Calderón and our new one, the Wanda Metropolitano). Later, parachutists descended from the sky to land on the pitch with the ball of the game, the Spanish flag and the club’s flag. Before the opening whistle, Gárate, Fernando Torres and Hugo (player of our Academy) took the honorary kick-off.

Our team controlled the match from the first minute of the match). Correa, with a shot from the edge of the box, had the best red and white chance in the first 45 minutes. In the second half, our team continued taking the initiative and kept looking for the first goal. It would come on 61 minutes. Correa, after a great individual play, beat his defender and sent a great cross to Griezmann who finished and scored.
